“I had left the Zionist movement. I felt that we had to assimilate and that we belonged with the workers, not with the well-to-do upper crust; that we had to fight for a better society.”
Willy Lindwer, The Last Seven Months of Anne Frank

“That day, we were all interned in the “S” barracks (the punishment barracks)—the Frank family, too. We all had our own problems, of course. I found my sister again there, and my parents and my brother, and we didn’t pay very much attention to what was going on around us. But still, a family like that, with two children. We knew that they were there, that they had been in hiding. What a shame to have been caught at the last minute.”
Willy Lindwer, The Last Seven Months of Anne Frank

“After that, they simply beat me in a blind rage, but I was no longer interrogated. Had they kept it up, I might have said things that I didn’t want to tell. None of us gave anyone away. I don’t know whether you should pride yourself on that or not.”
Willy Lindwer, The Last Seven Months of Anne Frank
